On February 20, 2010, at about 2:30am, Portage la Prairie RCMP members observed a 1999 Toyota Corolla that had indicated a right turn but instead turned left on Saskatchewan Avenue in Portage la Prairie.

The vehicle was stopped by police and the driver, a 22-year-old female, was exhibiting signs of impairment. The driver was arrested for impaired operation of a motor vehicle and was transported to Portage la Prairie Detachment where she provided a breath sample of 180mg%, double the legal limit.
